Sorry my call is N8GBU I'm a general class but do to health issues I haven't been able to operate for several years. I'm located in Toledo, Ohio. I'm basically stuck on what antenna's or antenna to buy. For home use....I have Arrows satellite antenna that fits on a tripod and an H.T. to go with it. I have the Yaesu I believe 5500 rotator that is used for satellites. I plan to assemble everything on the ground until next year as the rotator is so heavy I want to make sure everything works and redo everything in the spring. Thanks Mike N8GBU
